Yesterday was Alexander last day of school before Christmas vacation. Here's a picture from his party. He made a beautiful gift for Mommy & Daddy and I will post a picture of that hopefully by tomorrow.

Thanksgiving

Alexander's Thanksgiving program. Alexander is sitting on the floor -far right, with the BIG smile! :)

Alexander with Resi, who works in his school lunchroom. Resi & I worked together years ago before I got married. Small world, huh?

Writing Skills

Alexander has been home from school most of the week this week, due to allergies. He is doing much better today. We've worked on different things this week. Today we worked on writing our name without tracing help. He doesn't quite have Alex down just yet. But he did such a great job. We are soo proud of him for "trying" so hard to write his name. Good job, Alex!!

Arv's 21st birthday

It's been a while since I posted anything. We have been very busy. We celebrated Arv's birthday several times. If you know me at all, you know I am big on my children's birthday's. So we had a party at home on his actual birthday (November 10, 2008). And then we had a surprise party for him the following Sunday. It was fun and we were actually able to keep it a surprise. Grandma was sick, so Grandpa and her weren't here but everybody else was. It seems so unreal to have a 21 year old. He is still growing up but we love him very much!
